    Cant use esc or win key to set shortcuts


    for some reason all my app's shortcuts are set to "none" like task manager and snipping tool, so when i try to manually set them to the defaults ctrl+win+esc, win+shift+S esc and win don't appear, only ctrl+win and shift+S, in fact when i try to set the win key it opens start menu so i have the idea that esc is also doing something else but how can i set them in the shortcut menu?also, for some reason i cant upload images in the post because it fails to load them so i attach a link of the menu that I'm in from the internethttps://images.tips.net/S15/Figs/T10869F1.png

    :)

  2. Ctrl-Esc... Minimize Gaming Window - Win7

    ctrl+esc = Win/meta/super

    it's been around forever. back then my keyboard doesn't even have a Win key.

    there's also alt+esc, it's like alt+tab, but without the box switch, jumps directly to windows.

    Desktop HTML shortcuts being listed in Apps under settings?

    A friends Win 10 installation is listing Desktop HTML shortcuts under Apps in the Setting App listing. Seems to have happened after he downloaded and installed a program in support of some two way radio equipment. System Restore does not correct the problem. Suggestions appreciated.

    E71 - [TAB] and [ESC] key

    > As a temporary workaround you could use CTRL+I which translate to TAB.

    YAY! Thanks a lot danyvip, it works perfectly.

    Any idea for [ESC]? Is there any document where all those shortcuts are listed?

    TIA.
